Help Wanted: Goodreads and Instagram Coordinators

Calling all Rebels!!!

Over the past six months, three of our members have stepped down from Rebellious Writing. We greatly appreciate the time that Abby, Anna C.S., and Audrey have given us and we can't thank them enough for giving us that strong start.

Their leaving has left some holes, especially in our social media scene. We now have not one but two open positions: Goodreads and Instagram coordinators.

We do sincerely apologize for all the previous miscommunications (to put it mildly) that have happened with these two positions, especially with the Goodreads coordinator. Now that some of the craziness has died down, we can look at recruitment for these two positions much more seriously.

Goodreads:

The Requirements for the Candidates are:

1. Must be a supporter of clean YA reads.

2. Must have a Goodreads page and be (or be willing to become) a member of the Rebellious Writing Goodreads Group (LINK HERE)

3. A Google Account is also recommended, but not required.

The Responsibilities of the Position are:

1. Moderate all discussions. Remove spam comments and comments with swearing or other inappropriate content. If desired, new discussions may also be started by the coordinator.

2. Collaborate with the Book Scout Coordinator to find appropriate books for a future reading list and to publish Book Scout reviews onto Goodreads.

3. Participate in the Rebellious Writing team communications via Google Hangouts and email.

Further responsibilities may be added in the future. In terms of time commitment, we would prefer that there is new activity on the page at least once a month.

Instagram:

The Requirements for the Candidates are:

1. Must be a supporter of clean YA reads.

2. Must be willing to use uncopyrighted or CC licensed images or own work in posts. Under no circumstances will illegal use of copyrighted images be allowed.
3. Have a basic knowledge of aesthetics, design and color theory.

4. Previous Instagram experience is highly recommended.
5. A Google Account is also recommended, but not required.

The Responsibilities of the Position are:

1. Post images, book or author quotes that support clean reading, clean writing, or other related topics.
2. Moderate all comments. Remove spam and comments with swearing or other inappropriate content.

3. Grow the platform by subscribing to Instagram pages and commenting on posts that support clean books, particularly clean YA books. These can be Christian or secular.

The instagram one sounds fun... I have to think about it, though. I want to help y'all out so much, but right now life is somewhat in the way. Definitly something I'll be pondering today. I worry, however, that because some of my opinions on books have changed, that I'm not a good candidate.

Either way, whether I'm able to help or not, I hope you find the right people. To Anna, Abby, and Audrey, I wish y'all the best and pray you fulfil all your goals. <3
